If you have to replace any curtains, have them made up of the heat
reflective material used in ironing board covers. Get the stuff at
sewing and fabric supply stores. I got this tip from Stephen Grisanti
and his wife when they came through Chelsea, AL a while back - where I
lived at the time. They had a lovely camper, and the curtains were made
from the stuff and they swore by it. My curtains in my blue 88GL are
faded and worn and that is what I will have my replacements made from.
